Tuesday, November 29, 2022 –A caring cop who helped nurse a newborn baby after her mother had just delivered few hours to national examinations, has broken her silence.
Constable Gladys Kimani attached to Nyamarambe Police Station in Kisii County, received unending praises after photos of her holding the newborn surfaced online.
She had just volunteered to take care of the baby while the mother sat for sessions in the ongoing Kenya Certificate of Primary Education KCPE.
“The girl delivered on Monday morning before she sat for the examination. I was deployed there since she was sitting for the exam and there was nobody to help her,” she told a writer.
The constable told the publication that the candidate had just delivered on the morning of Monday, November 28, a few hours before the mathematics paper began.
“As the teacher was giving her the exam, I decided to assist,” the Police Constable, further stated.
By that time, the candidate was yet to get anyone from home to help take care of the baby as she undertook her exams.
Kimani also added that the little mother’s health was also not so good to be left alone.
